Given society’s present reliance on fossil fuels, widespread adoption of CCS appears indispensable for meeting stringent climate targets. We argue that for conventional CCS to become a successful climate mitigation technology—which by necessity has to operate on a large scale—it may need to be complemented with air capture, removing CO2 directly from the atmosphere. Air capture of CO2 could act as insurance against CO2 leaking from storage and furthermore may provide an option for dealing with emissions from mobile dispersed sources such as automobiles and airplanes.Climate change, Atmospheric scienceskl2010, jmm2009, ap2622, abw57, bv2137Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory, Lenfest Center for Sustainable Energy, Earth and Environmental Engineering, Earth InstituteArticlesThe urgency of the development of CO2 capture from ambient air: Supporting informationhttp://academiccommons.columbia.edu/catalog/ac:152639
